The constitution only applies to religions when the religion's rights are being infringed on. When religions shit on the constitution thats ok.

I caught your meaning, and smiled.

What I find so interesting about all this is a basic truth that needs little buttressing: No matter how the gay marriage stuff comes out,*religion will be taken down with it*. There's *NO WAY* it will escape unscathed.

After the vote in Maine -- did you see those articles?-- people have left the church, left the state, and no longer trust certain neighbors. This thing is gonna cause damage everywhere it goes.

And the anti-gay will keep, keep, keep not seeing that *and being the major cause of the damage*.

I think, privately, in their hearts, the pro-gay have promised themselves that if gay marriage does not pass,*religion will not get out of this alive*. I applaud them. Organized religion is one thing; faith, another altogether. If it takes major, earth-shattering damage to get sense into people's heads, then I continue to disagree with the "conventional wisdom" that that's a "bad thing," because *nothing is going to change them except danger which shakes their very world to the roots*.

Thank you for your post.

marriage is a sham. no one should have benefits or rights unless they intend to stay married for life faithfully. now that's a commitment that should be rewarded.

let's just do away with marriage completely. whadda ya'll say??? then we can tackle the real problems like processed cheese products.
